What's new in Quizado

Every AI quiz now plays like a show.

AI games now plan rounds with their own style and mix question types: pick several, numbers, line them up, typed answers, drawings and pictures. Ask for music in your brief and you get a music round of real song clips for teams to name. Turn on Classic only when you want plain multiple choice.

Song clips come only when your brief asks for music.

Players find their team without the guesswork.

Players now pick Start a new team or Join my friends' team as they arrive. A new team gets its own setup screen for its name and a mascot or a photo. Then each player can say Yes to get their score after the quiz and the date of the next quiz night from your venue, or skip it and just play.

A Yes needs an email or a phone number.

Every team gets a face of its own.

When a team sets up, it picks one of 36 animal mascots. A mascot one team holds is greyed out for the others that night, so no two teams look alike. The mascot shows on the big screen and in your league standings, and the captain can change it from the team sheet.

A team photo still works and shows in place of the mascot.

A Territory night now lasts as long as you planned.

Give Territory a time limit and the game fills the time. When one team owns the whole board early, it wins the round, and a new round starts on a fresh board with every team back in and fresh categories. When the time is up, the most rounds won takes the game; a tie goes to the most squares over every round, then to one tiebreak duel.

A game with no time limit still ends when one team owns the board.

Put the game on any screen with one short address.

On the computer at the TV, open quizado.com/tv in any browser and type your venue code, or go straight to quizado.com/tv/ and your code. No login needed, and that browser opens your venue's screen by itself next time. Other screen in the host apps shows the short address big, with Copy, Share and a QR code.

No venue code yet? During a game, type the six-digit code the host app shows, or give your venue a code in venue settings.

Every price tonight, in your own money.

Pick your currency on the Price Check card under Currency, and it is saved for your venue at once. Prices from other countries are converted at the rate of their own year. The reveal shows the original too, for example "originally £4,000 in 1955".

Never wonder what to say next.

The Host Coach is on from your first night: the host panel shows two things at every moment of the night: what to do, and a line to say out loud. It follows the game on its own in Trivia, Family Face-Off, QuizoParty and Territory, and only you see it.

On every plan. Turn it off any time in the gameplay settings.

Plan your next quiz night from a chat.

Connect your Quizado account to ChatGPT or Claude and ask in plain words. The chat finds packs, has Quizado's AI build a Trivia, Family Face-Off or QuizoParty game, lets you change questions and schedules the game in your Calendar. Ask about your games, sets and league standings too.

Any plan can connect, and your plan limits apply. A game the AI builds uses your AI questions, as in the app.

No host at the panel? The marks still come in.

When Auto-Host runs the night, AI marks the drawings and open answers that wait for a mark, and the night moves on. You choose what happens when AI is not sure: give the point, or not.

Each question it marks uses 1 AI question. With no AI questions left, the answers wait for you. Turn it off with "AI marking" in the Auto-Host settings.

Bring your regulars back next week.

Open Messages, pick one of the ready Quizado templates or write your own, and fill in the night, the theme or the offer. Add a Quizado image or your logo, then send it now or schedule it. It goes by email and app notification to the players who opted in at your venue.

Business plan and the Business trial. Players opt in when they join your game and can turn venue messages off in their profile.

Your phone and computer just find each other.

Sign in to the same account on both and your phone offers to team up. Make it the buzzers for the game on the computer, or make the computer the big screen for a game you host from the phone. Works with the web dashboard in any browser, too.

The board goes on the bar's TV. No laptop needed.

Install Quizado on an Apple TV or a Google TV and type six digits, or cast the board to a Chromecast. It runs over the internet, so the pub's guest Wi-Fi does not matter, and if the TV drops, the round and the clock carry on. An Apple TV can even run a Trivia night on its own with Auto-Host.

Territory: conquer the board, one picture duel at a time.

Every team owns a category and a square on the board. Two neighbours duel on pictures from the defender's category, each on a chess clock, and the first clock to reach zero loses all its squares. The last team standing owns the board. 4 to 16 teams, no phones needed, and you can bring in the top teams of a finished Trivia night.

On every plan. 16 teams play in about 30 to 45 minutes.

Price Check: closest without going over wins.

Teams bid on the prices of famous things from their phones, all at once or in turn, and the closest bid without going over takes the points. Each round ends with a mini-game the round leaders play for double. The top 2 teams meet in the Showcase: one bid on a bundle of three items.

From New Game to the lobby in two steps.

Choose the format, then what to play, and the lobby opens straight away. Every game now shares one lobby layout: the teams as they arrive, then the game, how it runs and the settings. Start is always in the same place, and Print sits in the host bar.

One topic in, a whole Territory category out.

Type a topic and the AI draws 60 to 90 photo-style pictures, each with its answer, ready for your own Territory Night. Do not like a picture? New AI picture draws another one.

Needs Pro or Business. Each picture costs 1 AI question, and every picture the AI does not deliver is refunded.

Every game, one import.

Open Bulk import from any Custom Questions tab: Trivia, Family Face-Off, QuizoParty, Territory or Price Check. A ZIP of pictures and answers becomes Territory categories, and a sheet of prices becomes your own Price Check items.

Bulk import needs Business.

Your prices, your Price Check night.

Add items by hand, from a sheet or with AI; the AI checks every price against a real source before it saves it. Then Build from my items on New Game makes a Price Check night from your items, and the price bank tops it up.

A night from your items and AI items need Pro or Business. Importing a sheet needs Business.

Set it up tonight, play it next week.

Build the night in its lobby, then tap Schedule for later: your regular night, next week or any date. It opens exactly as you left it, with its slides, questions in order and every setting. Plan a game from Calendar and the lobby opens for planning: phones join only when you start, and Start now instead turns it into tonight's game.

Teams join again on the night. Territory cannot be scheduled from its lobby.

Four phones, four teams, no mix-ups.

Tap Teams on a buzzer phone to pick which team buttons it shows, so each table holds just its own team. In Family Face-Off and QuizoParty the host panel now lists every buzzer phone: its teams, connected or away, and the team of its last buzz. Remove frees a phone that got stuck.

Your team, your products, your town: on the board.

Upload many pictures at once, and Quizado takes each answer from the file name for you to check. Mix your categories with Quizado's in your own Territory Night, and download it to play with no internet.

Making categories is free. Hosting a night with your own pictures needs Pro or Business.

No Wi-Fi, still a Territory night.

Download a Territory Night with all its pictures, then start it with no internet. If the connection drops mid-game, Continue offline keeps the duels running, and the night reaches History once you are back online.

Offline hosting is in the desktop app and the Quizado Mobile Apps, and needs a paid plan.

Three game modes, three names of their own.

The survey game is now Family Face-Off, the clue-board game is QuizoParty and the music round is Catch That Tune, everywhere in Quizado. QuizoParty gets a board of its own too: a colour per category, played tiles show which team won them, and the big screen shows how much each team can bet in the Final Wager.

Two players, one clock, one target.

Mark up to 5 questions in your set: they stay out of the main game and come back in the Speed Round at the end. The leading team sends two players against the clock: the second cannot repeat an answer of the first, and every answer adds points toward the target you set.

Pick a pack by how long your night is.

Every pack now shows about how many minutes it runs. Pick a length, from 15 minutes to 2 hours, and who's playing: friends and family, a pub crowd, kids or a work team. Each pack tells you if your venue has played it, or how many of its questions are new to you. It works the same in the pack store and in New Game.

A ready Trivia game, with nothing your venue played in the last 12 months.

Pick a length and Fresh Night builds a ready game from questions your venue has not played in the last 12 months, and checks that no question gives away another. Shuffle it, lock the rounds you like and swap the rest, until the night looks right.

English only for now. On the free plan a Fresh Night runs up to 30 minutes.

Three new nights every week, and the month starts free.

Every week brings a Trivia, a Family Face-Off and a QuizoParty night, in all 8 languages and ready by Tuesday night (UTC). In the week of the month's first Monday they are free on every plan and run about 30 minutes; in other weeks the Trivia and Family Face-Off nights run 60 to 120 minutes. One email and one notification a week tell you they are ready.

Outside the free week, Game Nights need Starter. A QuizoParty night is one board, about 35 minutes. Turn the email off in your notification settings.

One AI question is one question. And you get many more.

AI credits are now AI questions: one is one question, and your balance carries over as it is. Every paid plan gets more each month: Starter 250, Pro 500 and Business 2,000. New packs of 500 and 2,000 cost much less per question.

Monthly AI questions reset on the 1st of each month. AI questions you bought never expire.

Every Trivia night counts in your venue league. No setup.

Your venue now has its own league, and every Trivia night counts in it by itself, in seasons of three months. After the game, players see their team's league place on the phone, and players with an email get a recap with the table. Switch the recap off in League settings.

Nights count on every plan. The full table, the players' league place and the recap email come with Business.

Tell the AI how long your night is. It plans the rest.

Choose how long the game should be, from 30 minutes to 2 hours, and Quizado shows the rounds, the questions and the AI questions it uses before it writes them. A 2-hour game is 8 rounds of 12. Starter can now write and host AI games with its 250 AI questions a month.

Hosting packs you write yourself still needs Pro.

Sign in with Apple or Google, on every device you host from.

Sign in with Apple or Google in the browser, the desktop app and the Quizado Mobile Apps. If your email already has a Quizado account, you land in that account, with your packs, venue and plan. New here? The same button creates your account. The email code still works, right under it.

An Apple sign-in that hides your email creates a new account instead of opening the one you have.

Drawings now come in colour.

The canvas fills the player's phone, in the same 4:5 shape on every device. Players pick from nine inks and two stroke widths and mix them in one drawing, with Undo and Clear one tap away. The host panel and the big screen show every drawing in colour.
